On our last day,with nothing much to do as we'd returned our hire car we decided to walk from our apartment in benities to Achillion Palace. Quite a walk ,all uphill for about an hour ,but well worth the time and effort. It cost 7 euros entry fee then 3euros for taped guide ( a must have).the palace is beautiful and very interesting,it's history is quite recent and therefor you can still imagine how it would have been in its hay day. The grounds are lovely and the views stunning. All in all a good day out.

Beautiful place, definitely worth a visit. Admire the palace as well as the outdoor space, the gardens and the view.You can get there from the city by bus, so ask your hotel or the bus station for information.

Although it begun as a summer palace for the emperess Sissi of Austria, after her son died and she got apart from her husband, the emperor Franz Josef, this palace became the permanente home for Sissi.It is named after Achilles, Greek hero of the Trojan War and the central character and greatest warrior of Homer's Iliad, wich was a favorite of the beautiful emperess.This palace has mostly wonderful gardens and views and it is perfect for fotography lovers.

I would say this is one of the best places you can visit on the island. Not only that it has a significant historical importance, but also in terms of architecture it's fabulous. Besides this, as you can already guess, the palace has a great view also, from the balcony but also from the garden near the "Achilles as guardian" statue where there is some kind of terrace. You can find all kind of art pieces, statues, paintings, old furniture, etc. I am fascinated by the history of the place in the first place, it is always exciting to be in a place where historical figures lived or passed by, to touch things that they touched or to see views that they saw from the same place, it's very fascinating.Other things that you should know about this place is that one ticket costs 7 euros, there is a big parking place, and if you go in the morning there are not many peoples visiting. We've been at the first hour in the morning and there were 3-4 peoples there besides us, but I guess that in the afternoon there are many.If you visit the palace, make sure you read some historical facts about it before, you will enjoy it more!

When someone asks me, what I remember most from my holidays, it's this palace. It worth every penny. It is amazing building with beautiful gardens, wonderful statues, breathtaking view,... You can feel the history around you and if you listen electronic guide with information about palace, you can even feel presence of Sissi. I was so fascinated by this palace, that I made a presentation to school about the Achillieon.Just one thing I don't like - they don't warn you they make a photo of you and before you leave they try to sell it to you. That means there can be only part of you on the photo or your back or your face doesn't look good. However, I'd like to visit the Achillieon again.

Even the palace was built by the Austrian Empress Elisabeth (nickname Sissi) don’t expect to find the Schönbrunn palace here. It was designed as a summer residence – small, quiet and breathing of good taste. The location is great and the place is full with history, interesting stories and pieces of fine art. The garden could be better taking care of but still reminds the lost glory from the age of empires. A must see if you are in Corfu (the Greece's emerald island).
